The bad news is that Bethany Neal unfortunately had to cancel. She sends her regrets and encouragement to everyone.

The good news is that we are very excited and grateful to be able to announce that Teresa Crumpton has graciously agreed to present a wonderful preparatory workshop – Juiced: Techniques to Power Up Your Creativity. If you saw her earlier this month at CCWA, you’ll know what a great presenter she is.

We have our kick off scheduled and it’s going to be a blast with games, a potluck, photo ops and information about our heroic month ahead. For more information you can see our thread here. Right now we need you to rsvp so we can know how many goodie bags to make. Please rsvp here. (Thanks to everyone who has rsvped thus far!)

Also, we have a potluck list going on our thread here. If you can bring something to eat, please sign up here.

Also – please feel free to start and comment on threads in our regional forum. Want to know how everyone is prepping? Start a thread to ask. Want to know what everyone is writing – post that too. Or anything else you would like to post.

Until next time,
Contemplative Cat (aka Annette) along with YuOfOwari22 (aka Courtney)
